Register at www.pnwboces.org/catalog Success with the CCLS and the NYS Story of Ratios and Proportions Curriculum How do we develop deep understanding of ratios and proportions, and how do we help our students develop their proportional reasoning abilities? In this workshop participants will explore and discuss rich curriculum material and ways it can be employed to increase achievement levels of all students. The workshop will employ a hands-on approach by posing a variety of questions and then having participants form hypotheses, collect data, and analyze the data. While there will be a heavy emphasis on proportional relations and the K-8 capstone goal of developing proportional reasoning, we will make connections to common middle school topics including fractions, decimals, measurement, percentages, and algebra. Using these common topics, participants will develop ways they can incorporate this hands-on material into their school mathematics programs. Increase the benefit of this workshop by attending with mathematics and science colleagues. PARTICIPANTS: Teachers of mathematics in grades 6-8 DATE/TIME: Feb 3 2014 8:30AM - 3:00PM COST: $132 for Curriculum Center Members; $152 Curriculum Center Non Members LOCATION: Putnam/Northern Westchester BOCES; Yorktown Heights, NY; School Services Building FACILITATOR: Jim Matthews has been a faculty member at Siena College where he teaches mathematics, computer science, and courses for the education department. Mr. Matthews has given conference presentations and written articles based on ideas for improving the teaching of mathematics. He has also co-directed successful grant projects on integrating the teaching of mathematics and science and is currently the principal investigator on a $1.2 million grant to Siena from the National Science Foundation with the goal of improving the preparation of mathematics and science teachers, especially for high-needs school districts. Mr. Matthews helped develop undergraduate and graduate programs for mathematics and science teachers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. He served as president of the Association of Mathematics Teachers of New York State and continues to be an active member of this association along with the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, and the Mathematical Association of America.

Register at www.pnwboces.org/catalog CCLS Algebra II Analysis How will we transition Algebra II and Pre Calc for acceleration at the HS? Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Participants will analyze the changes in the specific content standards and discuss the implementation of an honors program to allow students to accelerate in AB calculus as seniors. Both the Progressions document and PARCC Model Content Frameworks document will be used to identify what needs to be in place to prepare students for the CCLS Algebra II Regents in June 2015. Scope and sequence documents will be shared with participants. Participants will research tasks that model the mathematical practices and standards. Participants should bring resources to share and a flash drive to save work created. PARTICIPANTS: Secondary teachers of mathematics, department chairs, and coordinators DATE/TIME: Mar 11 2014 8:30AM - 3:00PM COST: $190 for Curriculum Center Members; $218 Curriculum Center Non Members LOCATION: Putnam/Northern Westchester BOCES; Yorktown Heights, NY; School Services Building FACILITATOR: Eleanore Livesey, Putnam/Northern Westchester BOCES Math Consultant, taught math methods and supervised student teachers and graduate interns at Pace University. A former math teacher (elementary, middle, and high school) and math supervisor at middle and high school levels, she has worked as a math consultant throughout New York. Mrs. Livesey is the past president of the Association of Mathematics Teachers of New York State (AMTNYS), NYS Association of Mathematics Educators (NYSAMS), and Ten County Mathematics Education Association (TCMEA). Mrs. Livesey is available for consultation in your district. REGISTRATION REQUIRED BY: 2/25/2014 90
